Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a composite of, for instance, a titanium alloy and a titanium alloy, a titanium alloy and another metal alloy, or a titanium alloy and a fiber-reinforced plastic, as used in industrial machinery such as transport equipment, electric equipment, medical equipment or general machinery, as well as in consumer appliances.
  • the invention relates also to a bonding method of such a composite. More specifically, the present invention relates to a titanium alloy composite and to a bonding method thereof, the titanium alloy composite resulting from integrally bonding (fixing) an optimal titanium alloy part and a fiber-reinforced plastic such as carbon fiber-reinforced plastic, in components that make up, for instance, transport equipment where lightweight is required, such as automotive components, aircraft components, and bicycle components.
  • the chemically etched metal alloy has preferably a rough surface (surface roughness) exhibiting a period of 1 to 10 ⁇ m (spacing between peaks or spacing between valleys) wherein the peak-valley height difference is about half the spacing, i.e. about 0.5 to 5 ⁇ m.
  • Condition (1) is deemed to be satisfied when surface roughness, as measured using a surface roughness analyzer, yields a roughness curve with a maximum height difference ranging from 0.2 to 5 ⁇ m for textures of irregular period ranging from 0.2 to 20 ⁇ m, or when the mean width of elements (roughness curve average length) (RSm) ranges from 0.8 to 10 ⁇ m and the maximum height roughness (maximum height of profile) (Rz) ranges from 0.2 to 5 ⁇ m in accordance with Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS B 0601:2001(ISO 4287)), based on scanning analysis using a scanning probe microscope.
  • RSm mean width of elements
  • Rz maximum height roughness
  • the inventors denominate a roughness thus defined as "surface of micron-scale roughness".
  • the above large irregular surface strictly speaking the inner wall face of the recesses thereof, has a fine irregular surface of a period not smaller than 10 nm, preferably a period of 50 nm.
  • the surface that constitutes the above fine irregular surface is a ceramic substance, specifically a metal oxide layer thicker than a native oxide layer, or a deliberately created metal phosphate layer.
  • This hard-substance layer is preferably a thin layer having a thickness ranging from several nm to several tens of nm.
  • suitable resins that can be used are hard crystalline resins having a slow crystallization rate upon rapid cooling, for instance through compounding with other polymers that are appropriate for the resin.
  • resin compositions in which a crystalline resin such as PBT or PPS is compounded with other appropriate polymers, as well as with glass fibers and the like.
  • These resin compositions can be injection-bonded using ordinary injection molding machines and injection molding molds. The injection bonding process is explained next according to the "new NMT" hypothesis of the inventors. The injected molten resin is generally led into an injection molding mold at a temperature lower than the melting point of the resin by about 150°C.
  • the molten resin is found to cool within flow channels of the molten resin, such as sprues, runners and the like, down to a temperature lower than the melting point. It will be appreciated that no immediate phase change to solid occurs in zero time, through crystallization when the molten crystalline resin is cooled rapidly, even at or below the melting point of the molten resin.
  • the molten resin persists in a molten, supercooled state for a very short time also at or below the melting point.
  • the duration of this supercooling has been successfully prolonged somewhat in PBT and PPS through some special compounding, as described above.
  • This phenomenon can be exploited to cause the molten resin to penetrate into large, micron-scale recesses on the surface of the metal, before the abrupt rise in viscosity that accompanies the generation of large amounts of micro-crystals. After having penetrated into the recesses, the molten resin goes on cooling, whereby the number of micro-crystals increases dramatically, causing viscosity to rise abruptly.
  • the size and shape of the recesses determine whether the molten resin can penetrate or not all the way into the recesses.
  • Experimental results have revealed that, irrespective of the type of metal, the molten resin can penetrate thoroughly into recesses having a diameter not smaller than 1 ⁇ m and having a depth of 0.5 to 5 ⁇ m.
  • the inner wall faces of the recesses have also a rough surface, as evidenced in the above-described microscopic observations (micrographs), the resin penetrates partly also into the crevices of these ultra-fine irregularities. As a result, the resin catches onto the irregularities and is difficult to pull away when a pulling force acts from the resin side.
  • Such a rough surface affords an effective spike-like catching when the surface is that of a high-hardness metal oxide. If the period of the irregularities is 10 ⁇ m or greater, the bonding force weakens for the evident reasons below. In the case of dimple-like recess aggregates, for instance, the number of dimples per surface area decreases as the diameter of the recesses becomes larger. The larger the recesses are, the smaller the catching effect of the above-mentioned spikes.
  • bonding per se is a question of the resin component and the surface of the metal alloy, adding reinforcing fibers or an inorganic filler to the resin composition allows bringing the coefficient of linear expansion of the resin as a whole closer to that of the metal alloy.
  • the inventors gave up on validating their hypothesis through direct experimentation, and decided on a reverse approach. Specifically, the inventors assumed that the "new NMT" theoretical hypothesis can be applied also to adhesive bonding, and set out to study whether high-performance adhesive phenomena can be proved by a similar theory. That is, the inventors decided to ascertain whether non-conventional bonded systems can be discovered based only on the surface state of adherend materials, and using commercially available general-purpose epoxy adhesives.
  • Titanium alloys have special characteristics in that, for instance, their strength is comparable to that of steels, but with a specific weight of about 4.5. Among metals in practical use, titanium alloys are thus both high-strength but lightweight metals.
  • Titanium alloys are resistant to salt water, and elicit very low irritability on the skin and living organisms. For this reason, titanium alloys are used not only as materials in the above-described mobile equipment such as automobiles, but also as medical materials implanted in vivo, in the form of prosthetic arms, legs, teeth, joints and the like.
  • CFRP prepregs are fabrics or aggregates of carbon fibers impregnated with an uncured epoxy resin. Composite formation and integration simultaneous with curing can be made simple by tweaking the affinity of CFRP prepregs and an epoxy adhesive coated on the metal.

  • Intermediate members of titanium alloys, such as sheet, bars, pipes and the like, as well as formed products of the foregoing obtained through mechanical working such as cutting and grinding, press-working or the like, can be used in various machinery, equipment parts and structures.
  • the titanium alloy part is immersed first in a degreasing bath to remove thereby oils and grease that become adhered during mechanical work.
  • the degreasing agent is not a special one.
  • the titanium alloy part is preferably immersed in an aqueous solution prepared through addition of an ordinary degreasing agent, for instance a commercially available degreasing agent for iron, degreasing agent for stainless steel, degreasing agent for aluminum alloys, or degreasing agent for magnesium, to warm water, to a concentration as indicated by the manufacturer of the chemical. After dipping, the titanium alloy part is rinsed with water.
  • an aqueous solution of a commercially available industrial detergent to a concentration of several % and a temperature of about 60°C, the titanium alloy part being then immersed and washed in the aqueous solution and being thereafter rinsed with water.
  • the titanium alloy part is subjected next to a preparatory basic washing through immersion in a basic aqueous solution followed by water rinsing.
  • the titanium alloy part is chemically etched next through immersion in an aqueous solution of an acid having reducing character.
  • an acid having reducing character there can be used so-called reducing acids such as oxalic acid, sulfuric acid or hydrofluoric acid, which can erode the entire surface of a titanium alloy.

  • hydrofluoric acid affords a faster etching rate among the foregoing acids.
  • hydrofluoric acid Upon accidental contact with the human skin, however, hydrofluoric acid can penetrate deeply through the skin down to the bone, causing pain for several days.

  • the compound of the surface was a titanium oxide.
  • the hue of the surface was dark brown, indicative of a thin film of titanium (III) oxide or a mixture of titanium (III) oxide and titanium (IV) oxide.
  • the hue before etching was metallic, and thus the surface was a native oxide layer of titanium.
  • the surface After etching with an aqueous solution of ammonium bifluoride, the surface turned to a dark titanium oxide layer, i.e. not a native oxide layer.
  • the titanium oxide layer was etched 10 nm to several tens of nm using an argon ion beam, and the etched surface was analyzed by XPS.
  • the thickness of the titanium oxide layer in etched products of pure-titanium titanium alloys etched using an aqueous solution of ammonium bifluoride was found to be not smaller than 50 nm.
  • the oxide film of titanium oxide is not a simple titanium oxide layer, but a continuously changing layer in which the valence of titanium decreases continuously from the surface to reach a zero valence.
  • the oxide film is a continuously changing layer that looks as though the layer is the result of oxygen penetrating from the surface, where oxygen is rich, into the interior, where oxygen becomes progressively scarcer.
  • the bonding forces between the oxide film layer and the metal substrate is very strong, so we anticipate no concerns as regards resistance to peel breakage forces (stress).
  • titanium alloys other than pure titanium alloys are accomplished using the same treatment methods as described above.
  • other metals present in the alloy as small additives are reduced into insoluble products, called smut, by the nascent hydrogen gas that is generated during etching using an aqueous solution of a reducing strong acid.
  • Most of the smut can be dissolved and removed through subsequent immersion in a several % aqueous solution of nitric acid.
  • Silicon smut merely breaks free, without dissolving in the aqueous solution of nitric acid, and thus is preferably stripped off through application of ultrasounds in water.
  • Figs. 7(a) and (b) illustrate micrographs of an example of an ⁇ - ⁇ titanium alloy containing aluminum. These micrographs show the sides of some clean-cut mountains and hills, lacking the fine irregularities typical of a titanium alloy (as in Figs. 6(a) and (b) ), but also peculiar shapes resembling dead leaves.
  • the overall image of these surfaces was not an image of a fine irregular surface having a roughness period of 10 nm or more, preferably a period of 50 nm, as per condition (2) of the above-described NAT hypothesis, but rather that of a surface having a greater period, although the irregular surface itself was smooth.
  • the roughness as observed with a scanning probe microscope preferably involves an average length (RSm) of peaks and valleys ranging from 1 to 10 ⁇ m, and a maximum height roughness (Rz) ranging from 1 to 5 ⁇ m.
  • the period of the fine irregularities is large, and deviates slightly from the NAT condition (2). Therefore, it is not possible to grasp an overall image of the surface based on electron micrographs at 100,000 magnifications.

An excess of elastomer component beyond 30 parts by weight results in a drop in bonding strength, and is hence undesirable.
  • a vulcanized rubber powder having a particle size of 1 to 15 ⁇ m is an example of the elastomer component. Particles having a size of several ⁇ m are too large to intrude into the ultrafine irregularities on the titanium alloy during application of the adhesive. The particles remain thus in the adhesive layer and do not affect the anchor portions. As a result, there is no drop in bonding strength, while resistance to thermal shocks is an added benefit.
  • vulcanized rubber Although any type of vulcanized rubber can be used, in practice it is difficult to pulverize rubber to particles of several ⁇ m, regardless of rubber type.
  • Another approach involves using unvulcanized or semi-crosslinked rubber, and modified super engineering plastics or polyolefin resins.

  • the adhesive composition may be applied manually or using a coating machine.
  • the coated part After application of the epoxy resin adhesive onto the surface of the titanium alloy part, the coated part is preferably placed in a vacuum vessel or a pressure vessel. The pressure in the vessel is reduced to near vacuum. After several minutes, air is infused to revert the vessel to normal pressure. Alternatively, the coated part is placed in an environment under a pressure of several atmospheres to several tens of atmospheres. In a pressurized environment there is preferably repeated a cycle of depressurization and pressurization. Air or gas in the interstices between the coating material and the metal alloy is degassed as a result, which makes it easier for the coating material to penetrate into ultrafine recesses.
  • a method employing high-pressure air in a pressure vessel entails high costs in terms of equipment and expenses for actual mass production of titanium alloy composites. Therefore, carrying out one cycle, or several cycles of depressurization and return to normal pressure (atmospheric pressure) using a vacuum vessel makes for a more economic post-coating treatment method.

  • the dryer was energized to raise the temperature to 135°C.
  • the temperature was set at 135°C, and heating proceeded for 40 minutes. After a break of 5 minutes, the temperature was raised to 165°C, and was held there for 20 minutes.
  • the dryer was then powered off and was left to cool with the door open.
  • the baking mold 1 was removed from the dryer and the molded product was demolded from the baking mold 1.
  • the polyethylene films were stripped off to yield the titanium alloy composite 10 illustrated in Fig. 2 .
  • the same operation was repeated to obtain eight integrated products of a composite of the titanium alloy plate piece 11 and the CFRP 12.
  • a 1.0 mm-thick commercially available ⁇ - ⁇ titanium alloy "KSTI-9 (by Kobe Steel, Hogyo, Japan)" plate material was cut into 45 mm x 18 mm rectangular pieces, to prepare test pieces for measurement of bonding strength in the same way as above. That is, an adhesive was coated onto the titanium alloy, the titanium alloy was placed in a desiccator that was repeatedly evacuated using a vacuum pump and reverted again to normal pressure (atmospheric pressure), three times, to prepare adhesive-coated titanium alloy plate pieces.

  • a 1-mm thick commercially available ⁇ - ⁇ titanium alloy "KSTI-9 (by Kobe Steel, Hogyo, Japan)" plate material was cut into 45 mm x 18 mm rectangular pieces.
  • a degreasing aqueous solution was prepared in an dipping bath by heating, at a temperature of 60°C, an aqueous solution containing 7.5% of a commercially available degreasing agent "NE-6 (by Meltex, Tokyo, Japan)” for aluminum alloys.
  • the titanium alloy plate material was immersed for 5 minutes in this degreasing aqueous solution, and was then thoroughly rinsed with water. Next, the titanium alloy plate material was immersed for 1 minute in another dipping bath of a 1.5% aqueous solution of caustic soda at 40°C, and was rinsed with water thereafter.
  • An aqueous solution was prepared next by dissolving, in a separate dipping bath, 2wt% of a commercially available general-purpose etchant containing 40% of ammonium bifluoride "KA-3 (by Metal Processing Technology Laboratory, Tokyo, Japan)", at a temperature of 60°C.
  • the titanium alloy pieces were immersed for 5 minutes in this aqueous solution, and were then thoroughly rinsed with deionized water. Some black smut was adhered to the surface of the titanium alloy pieces. Therefore, the titanium alloy pieces were immersed for 1 minute in a 5% aqueous solution of oxalic acid at 40°C, and were rinsed with water thereafter.
  • the pieces were dried for 15 minutes in a warm-air dryer at a temperature of 90°C.
  • the obtained dry titanium alloy plate pieces had a dark brown hue, devoid of metallic gloss. After drying, the titanium alloy plate material was wrapped in aluminum foil and was stored further sealed in a polyethylene bag.
  • titanium alloy plate pieces were taken out and the ends thereof were thinly coated with a commercially available liquid one-liquid dicyandiamide-cured epoxy adhesive "EP-106 (by Cemedine, Tokyo, Japan)".
  • EP-106 liquid one-liquid dicyandiamide-cured epoxy adhesive
  • the pieces were placed in a desiccator, with the coated surface facing up, and the desiccator was evacuated to 3 mmHg using a vacuum pump.
  • air was let in to revert the pressure to normal pressure (atmospheric pressure).
  • the operation of reverting to normal pressure after depressurization was repeated three times, and then the titanium alloy plate pieces were removed from the desiccator.
  • the faces coated with the adhesive were stacked onto each other, over a bonding surface area therebetween of about 0.5 cm 2 .
  • the bonded pieces were placed in a hot-air dryer at a temperature of 135°C, where the two titanium alloy plate pieces were heated with a 300 g weight placed thereon. After heat-drying at 135°C, the temperature setting of the hot-air dryer was changed, 40 minutes later, to 165°C, to raise the temperature. Once reached, the temperature of 165°C was kept for 20 minutes, after which the hot-air dryer was switched off. The dryer was left to cool with the door open. Two days later, the bonded pieces were subjected to a tensile fracture test. The shear fracture strength, averaged over four sets, was very high, of 62 MPa.
  • the same 1 mm-thick titanium alloy "KS40" plate material of experimental example 1 was used, but lightly abraded first with #1000 sandpaper. The plate material was then cut into 45 mm x 18 mm rectangular pieces.
  • a degreasing aqueous solution was prepared in an dipping bath by heating, at a temperature of 60°C, an aqueous solution containing 7.5% of a commercially available degreasing agent "NE-6 (by Meltex, Tokyo, Japan)" for aluminum alloys.
  • the titanium alloy plate material was degreased through immersion for 5 minutes in the above aqueous solution, followed by thorough rinsing with water. Next, the titanium alloy plate material was immersed for 1 minute in another dipping bath, having an 1.5% aqueous solution of caustic soda at 40°C.
  • aqueous solution containing 0.4% of ammonium bifluoride at a temperature of 40°C was prepared next.
  • the alloy pieces were dipped for 15 seconds in this aqueous solution, and were then thoroughly rinsed with deionized water.
  • the pieces were dried for 15 minutes in a warm-air dryer at a temperature of 90°C.
  • the obtained titanium alloy plate pieces had less metallic gloss than initially, but retained a metallic feel, and were thus unlike those of experimental example 1.
  • the titanium alloy plate material was wrapped in aluminum foil and was stored further sealed in a polyethylene bag. Later, one of the pieces was observed using an electron microscope. The aspect of the pieces did not differ significantly from that of Fig. 6 .
